We have a firewall here that prevents us from accessing CVS. So to get the JOGL 
source we need to go to a different machine, do a CVS checkout, then burn the 
results to a CD to transfer them into the network.

I find this prohibitively difficult - it takes too long to do on the off chance 
that it might fix the problems I have with JOGL.

Firewalls aside, do you guys really want it to be difficult for people to use 
your product? Doing a cvs checkout is hardly simple if you're a new user.

So I suggest that you start to provide weekly (or appropriately frequent) 
packages of JOGL, either containing source code or even platform specific 
builds.

This will help industry acceptance of JOGL. I'm sorry, but if its hard to get 
at, I just won't bother.

Pete

Support for building source archives for the jogl and jogl-demos workspaces has
been added to the respective build.xml files. Forthcoming beta and final JOGL
releases will contain source archives. The nightly build system needs
maintenance work to utilize this support, so for now please look to the official
releases.
